Unitemps Annual Conference 2016
On Thursday 14th and Friday 15th July 2016, Unitemps hosted their 5th annual conference at the University of Warwick.
With over 75 staff in attendance, this year’s conference was the largest to date and provided an excellent forum for our staff to share thoughts and ideas whilst learning and engaging with the growing network.
The first day consisted of various interactive and collaborative sessions, covering everything from our new company mascot to how the EU referendum may effect our sector.
The day was then brought to a close with an inspiring talk from Olympic gold medallist Greg Searle, who spoke about overcoming obstacles and working together as a team.
The second day allowed us to put this into practice with our very own office Olympics, incorporating a range of team building activities and sports.
The event also saw our annual awards evening where we celebrated the various successes of Unitemps staff over the past year.
The awards recognise individuals and teams for achievements ranging from Branch of the Year to Long Service awards.
